If you look at the PTR leaderboards this isn't the case at all anymore, everybody is using 5 pieces of Raekor instead of 5 pieces of IK.
Ye, well, raekor barb is using 3 piece of raekor and 5 piece of IK with RRG ring in the cube, even tho it's called raekor barb :).

I'm actually rather curious whether or not zDH + Condemn Crusader could replace zMonk + Firebats WD. Condemn isn't that far off from Firebats, when I compared them it was something like 14T peak DPS for Firebats and 12T peak DPS for Condemn.
Firebats has the advantage of considerably more Area Damage, but Condemn scales far better with damage increases from zDPS builds (as they're actually at -10% DIBS compared to +88% DIBS), and Condemn is able to create its own density meaning you don't need Cyclone Strike. Condemn is also able to reposition freely without losing DPS, Firebats is basically immobile by comparison with Endless Walk and Taeguk.
Edit: Area Damage is pretty broken though, and AD is really hard to fit into a Condemn build, so none of this may actually mater.

It's not that 2+ DPS can't do better than 1 DPS + 3 support, the servers just can't handle it. There's no reason to even bother trying to push with a group comp that gives you 2000ms+ ping.

I'm looking for an active clan that has multiple groups running between 3PM PST - 3AM PST.
I want to be in groups that are capable of speedfarming GR75+.
I enjoy playing Support WD and would like to be competitive this season. I am an active theorycrafter and have been for years.
Edit: Seasonal.

Those "lightning bolts" you're seeing have nothing to do with Area Damage, that's Nephalem Glory. It's a tiny bit of additional damage (something pathetic like 100% weapon damage) and movement speed (10% at rank 2 and 3) you get for picking up Power Globes.
From what I've read Exploding Palm has all sorts of issues with Area Damage and basically doesn't work with it at all unless you applied the Exploding Palm manually (ie: you spent spirit putting it on a target).
